Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Visual Analogue Score

    measurement of postoperative pain using Visual Analogue Score. Minimum: 0 Maximum: 10. Higher values represent more pain, hence lower values are better

    T0:(Baseline) Postoperative 1st hour, T1: Change in 2nd, T2: Change in 4th, T3: Change in 6th, T4: Change in 12th, T5: Change in 24th, T6: Change in 36th, T7: Change in 48th, T8: Change in 72nd hours

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Analgesic consumption

    T0:(Baseline) Postoperative 1st hour, T1: Change in 2nd, T2: Change in 4th, T3: Change in 6th, T4: Change in 12th, T5: Change in 24th, T6: Change in 36th, T7: Change in 48th, T8: Change in 72nd hours
